My Expectations As An Older College / University Student

Here is a list of things I expect from my college, university and higher education experience. This is of course coming from a late starter who has decided to begin a degree at the unusual age of 24. It is becoming more common, but there is still a lack of youtube videos on the subject and not very many that have helped calm my nerves. I am a ‘mature’ student, apparently. According to the conventional age society has deemed ‘appropriate’ or ‘normal’ to attend these institutions.

So I set off with my list of expectations and a long list of things to do before going back to school. The loan has been accepted so I guess this is actually happening. Welcoming a mature, adult, old, aged, mid twenties (and whatever other labels I should be receiving) student’s thoughts and expectations on what college life will entail. Let’s begin the journey… And we may end it with an expectations vs reality style video.
